What?! Mark Thomas has been 'standing up' for 40 years? Impossible!! But how old does that make you...? Alas it is true; one of our oldest surviving alternative comics celebrates 40 years at the mic.

So, here's what he has done so far in numbers; performed comedy for 40 years, won 8 awards for performing, 4 for human rights work and 1 he invented for himself, made 6 series of the Mark Thomas Comedy Product (Channel 4), written 6 books and 5 play scripts, made 5 series of the Manifesto for Radio 4, made 3 Dispatches for Channel 4, sued the police (and won) 3 times, curated and authored 2 art exhibitions with artist Tracey Moberly and had 1 Guinness World Record for holding 20 protests in 24 hours.

You're right, there's more, but your attention is running out and we're running out of space. So, let's just say he's generally mucked about trying to have fun and upset the right people...which he is really, really good at.

So basically, expect a taster menu of government and personal mayhem, jokes, rants and a personal state of the nation broadcast as he tries to turn 'what the f*ck is going on' into a cogent hour of stand-up.
